SideTrak Swivel monitor review – a second screen for your laptop for extra productivity

sidetrack 1

REVIEW – I haven’t used a desktop as my personal computer in probably a decade or more. That is because I am willing to give up a huge monitor that usually comes with a desktop in exchange for the smaller screen and the portability that the laptop provides me.  And monitors are so cheap anyway […]

Bartesian premium cocktail maker review – It’s the Keurig of cocktail makers

Bartesian 1

REVIEW – When I make one I make sure that I have the right cherries on hand.  (Using those maraschino cherries is for amateurs.) I also need the perfect orange bitters, and good quality simple syrup.  The right sized glass is also critical, and if you have the ability to make one, use a classic

REVIEW – Tablets abound everywhere you turn.  You see them in stores, in schools, in businesses, and they have become so affordable that it seems like every family has 1 or more scattered throughout the house.

Treblab X3 Pro earbuds 2

REVIEW – I have owned just about every kind of wired/wireless earbuds you can imagine.  And I have discarded more than I can possibly remember.  There seem to be 2 main camps of earbud products these days:  the kind that have a wire of some kind, and those that are ‘true wireless’.  There are of

MECO wireless outdoor security camera 2

REVIEW – I have tried several security cameras over the years with varying success.  I love the idea of being able to connect wirelessly to see what’s going on when away from the house, and getting alerts when there is activity.  But I haven’t always been pleased with the results and I have never had

taotronics soundliberty 77 4

REVIEW – I have a confession to make.  And this isn’t easy to say.  Jealousy.  I have been jealous of Apple owners for their little white Airpods.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve made fun of them for wearing something that looks like earrings.  I’m an Android guy, after all, so I would make fun of
